Well, that entirely depends upon the sort of people you want to meet. If you're not very picky, then you'll find a lot of places at bars and clubs. There's always loads of people at those places.

If that's now your crowd and if you're in school, try clubs. I found most of my friends through clubs, and then more friends through those friends. And the benefit of that is you already know you have at least one thing in common. When I went to anime club, I knew I was going to meet people who liked anime.

I don't think I can really give you much advice for meeting people outside of college, I've never been in that situation. Search for community clubs, maybe? Volunteer somewhere? And once again there's always bars.

Why not hit up a sports club or try out a martial arts\self defence combat style? I joined an amateur wrestling club three years ago and on top of getting physically fit I met tons of great people and truly got some great stories I'll be telling to my great grandchildren when I'm like 150 years old. Competing also does wonders to a person.

Or even try something a bit more different, like take up a comic drawing course (made some very good friends when I did that) or see if there's a club that specializes in whatever hobby you like (assuming you like games, search for public LAN parties to join in on).

Just ignore night clubs and bars, they're only worth visiting if you've got a good bunch of friends going with you.
